The 6 th All China International Tube and Pipe Industry trade fair

Shanghai’s reputation as the Paris of the East may rest on the vibrancy of its 20-million-strong consumer market, abounding as it does in high- and middle-income earners generating demand for the best of imported wares. But the largest city in the People’s Republic of China serves a

much wider constituency than this demographic. Geography has placed Shanghai on China’s east coast. Its preeminence in commerce, finance, industry, and communications puts it squarely at the centre of the ever- widening sphere of Chinese influence in the world.
